Abstrakt: Introduction and Hypothesis: The purpose of the study was to analyze anatomical and functional outcomes after sacrocolpopexy (SCP) for vaginal vault prolapse pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POPQ) II-III by random use of absorbable (Vicryl) and non-absorbable sutures (Ethibond) for vaginal mesh fixation.
Methods: This study was designed as a two-center randomized controlled study (RCT). The primary objective was to evaluate the anatomical outcome. Success was defined when the vaginal apex (point C; POPQ) did not descend more than 50% of the total vaginal length (tvl) during Valsalva. Patients completed a pelvic examination incorporating the POPQ and questionnaires (the German pelvic floor questionnaire and the PISQ-12 questionnaire) at baseline and 6 months postsurgery. Perioperative adverse events (AE) were recorded. Sample size calculations, based on a 10% non-inferiority limit required 100 participants per group, with power = 90%.
Results: In 190 out of 195 women (ETH group n = 96; VIC group n = 94) anatomical success was achieved. The relative risk of anatomical success failure in the VIC group versus the ETH group was 0.69, with a 95% confidence interval 0.12-4.02. The change in the symptom scores did not differ significantly between the ETH and the VIC group. In the ETH group, three suture penetrations into the vagina were observed, and none in the VIC group 6 months postoperatively.
Conclusions: Anatomical success after SCP for vaginal vault prolapse POPQ II-III is not affected by suture type for vaginal monofilament mesh attachment. Moreover, we did not see any differences in functional outcomes between the two groups. Three suture penetrations into the vagina were observed in the ETH group, and none in the VIC group 6 months postoperatively.
